How to use Twitter responsibly? (Tweetiquette)Twitter and other social media platforms offer a “great power” to communicate our science to each other and to the world we hope to impact, and, if we embrace this power with “great responsibility,” this impact will be a positive one with a global reach previous generations of scientists could only dream about.

Networking TheCOM™Dictionary.com defines the noun Network as“anassociationofindividualshavingacommoninterest,formedtoprovidemutualassistance,helpfulinformation,orthelike”and the verb Network as“to cultivate people who can be helpful to one professionally,especially in finding employment or moving to a higher position.”To me, this sounds a lot like a Community of Minds, so my definition of Networking isbuilding and cultivating a Community of Minds.The benefits of building and cultivating a Community of Minds are endless. The sooner you begin, the faster you will experience them for yourself. By Bethany Huot
